Legal claims defining the scope of protection, as filed with the USPTO.
1. An imaging device of a wireless network, the imaging device including a processor and memory configured to: capture a first video; place the captured first video in an outgoing queue; remove the captured first video from the outgoing queue and buffer the captured first video in a memory in response to receiving a delay notification from a downstream imaging device in the wireless network, the delay notification sent responsive to the downstream imaging device having an outgoing video queue length that exceeds a threshold; receive a second video from the downstream video imaging device; buffer the received second video in the memory; aggregate the buffered captured first video and the buffered received second video; and place the aggregated buffered captured first video and buffered received second video in the outgoing queue in response to receiving a start notification from the downstream video imaging device, the start notification sent responsive to the video queue length of the downstream imaging device no longer exceeding the threshold.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein the second video is captured by the downstream video imaging device.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the second video is relayed by the downstream video imaging device.
4. The device of claim 1 , wherein the imaging device is configured to place the captured first video in the outgoing queue before placing the aggregated buffered captured first video and buffered received second video in the outgoing queue in response to receiving the start notification.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the imaging device is configured to place one of the captured first video and the aggregated buffered captured first video and buffered received second video in the outgoing queue in response to receiving the start notification based on a respective priority level associated with each of the captured first video and the aggregated buffered captured first video and buffered received second video.
